Organ donation

Would you consider yourself becoming an organ donor? Let some unfortunate souls extend their stay here on earth by giving them your organ/s that they so desperately need? I would...I've actually chosen to be an organ donor when I applied for my driver's license. My reasoning is, you'll be dead anyway...why let your healthy organs go to waste if they can help prolong someone else's life? Its good to do good things while you're still alive...but its even better if you can still do good things even after you're gone.

Its alright if that's how you feel about it. You're entitled to your own whims and wishes. You have a nice day too and thank you for your input.

Oh wow!!! I'm speechless for this wonderful deed that you have done for somebody. You said "eyes"...did you mean both? Can I ask what made you decide to do that? I salute you, my friend...you have done something amazing for which not too many people would be brave and/or bold enough to do.

Yes of course...I meant, when you're dying or when, knock on wood, you suffered a misfortune like a tragic accident. The only thing we can give while we're still alive I suppose are blood, 1 of our kidney and maybe some bone marrow. All the others, we'll gonna need them ourselves for our own existence and survival. Thank you for your comment.
